Michael,
The status GUI uses the FW1_MGMT port, in exactly the same way that the log
viewer and policy editor do (because it is just a mode for that
application). If you are running it on a designated management client
machine, then you should see any alerts that are raised.
Alerts are generated if something happens that is configured to track as
alert. This means one of:
- packets matching a rule with track=alert
- an event occurring which is set to alert by policy properties.
As an example of a property-related alert, we have user authentication
failures reported using ALERT, because the Authentication property has
Authentication failure track = ALERT
